In this edition I discuss a variety of neurological themes with leading neurologist Allan H. Ropper. The conversation is around his co-authored bestseller, Reaching Down the Rabbit Hole, and it focuses on the two chapters of the book which address motor neurone disease. But we also discussed other subjects such as functional neurological disorders and neurosyphilis which are covered in the book, as well as in their second book, How the Brain Lost its Mind.

Before the excitement begins, Quimm City Productions would like to remind everyone that Black lives matter. We are not unaware of some of the accusations that have come up against the organization using that phrase as a name, but that does not negate the accuracy and necessity of the statement. If you believe Black lives matter, please use whatever resources you have to show up for living Black people. This includes support of the survivors of the murdered and accountability by those that have caused harm. That accountability must start in our own mirrors. So go forth, learn, grow, dismantle white supremacy. XXOXQuimm History is a podcast about badly behaved femmes.

How do the operations of the brain result in the mind? And, how has the study of the two been influenced by early medical cases? On this episode, Drs. Allan H. Ropper and Brian Burrell discussed how the brain lost its mind.
Mental illness has been in the headlines a lot recently. But what is it really? Guests Dr. Allan H. Ropper and Brian David Burrell are authors of the brand new book How The Brain Lost Its Mind, which takes a look at the strange history of two misunderstood ailments: syphilis and hysteria, and the efforts to confront their effects on mental life.
